What is the Rickshaw 3 Pen Long Coozy?
It’s a soft, open-topped pen sleeve with three plush-lined channels, made by Rickshaw Bagworks in San Francisco. There’s no zip or flap: you slide a pen into each channel and the plush holds it.
Coozies are among the most widely stocked fountain pen sleeves in US pen shops. Rickshaw sells them directly in many prints, and Goulet Pens and JetPens carry store exclusives such as JetPens’ Boba Collection.

The case size comes from Goulet Pens; pen limits from Rickshaw’s Pen Sleeve Size Guide (size L); materials and origin from Rickshaw’s FAQ.
Which pens fit?
Pens up to 6.0 in (152 mm) long and 0.7 in (18 mm) across, clip excluded, according to Rickshaw’s size guide for its Long (L) sleeves. Rickshaw names the LAMY Safari and TWSBI Eco as examples; that covers the LAMY safari at 139.5 mm and the Pilot Metropolitan at 138 mm.
For bigger pens Rickshaw lists fatter and longer sizes, such as LF2 (155 × 22 mm, Pilot Custom Urushi) and XL (165 × 18 mm).
Does it keep pens secure without a closure?
Mostly, yes: the snug plush holds them, but it isn’t sealed. With no flap or elastic, a hard shake upside down can tip a pen out.
That makes it best inside a bag, a backpack pocket or Rickshaw’s zippered Coozy Case. Rickshaw says one Coozy Case holds two 3-Pen Coozies plus one 2-Pen Coozy, eight pens in all, in sizes up to L.
How does it compare with other pen cases?
It’s the slimmest of these and the only one without a closure.
| 3 Pen Long Coozy | Sinclair Model R | Galen Leather 10 Slot | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Size | 169.3 × 121.7 × 4 mm (flat) | 171 × 108 × 19 mm | 160 × 125 × 30 mm |
| Pens | 3 | 3, plus a notebook | 10 |
| Closure | None | Zip-around | Zip-around |
| Material | Polyester canvas, plush | Cordura, plush lining | Vegetable-tanned leather |
The other figures come from their guides. Choose the Coozy to protect a few pens inside something else; choose the Sinclair if you also want a pocket notebook.
Which colors and prints are there?
Dozens, and each shop stocks its own mix. Goulet lists solid and two-tone versions such as Inky Blue-Green, Inky Turquoise, Black/Peacock and Synthscape.
Rickshaw’s own shop lists prints such as RAD Swirls Triptych, Botany Bear and Poppy Bear, and makes custom colors to order. JetPens has its own Boba Collection in Matcha, Taro and Strawberry.
Prints and exclusives come and go, so if you want a particular one, buy it when you see it. The fabric and lining don’t change the size listed for each model.
Which length should you buy?
Check the size letter, because Rickshaw makes Coozies from XS to 5XL. Its size guide rates S for 5.0 in (130 mm) pens, M for 5.5 in (140 mm), L for 6.0 in (152 mm) and XL for 6.5 in (165 mm).
Rickshaw’s own price for a 3-Pen Coozy, and most US listings for the Long Coozy we found, sit in the $20–75 band.
Where is it made?
In San Francisco, by Rickshaw Bagworks. Rickshaw says every product is made from scratch and to order in its own sewing shop there, with a usual lead time of 2–3 business days; its Digiprint canvas is woven to its spec in North Carolina. Goulet says so too.
